Mapping Santiago's Journey

This is our culminating project for the unit, and it will be a very detailed piece. It is due by May 16 at the latest. The necessary components are as follows:

Santiago's journey will be traced on a map - All places in bold must be labeled
The map will begin in southern Spain in an area Santiago refers to as Andalusia. The first location is the church. From there, Santiago will travel to Tarifa, Spain. Then he will cross the Strait of Gibraltar into the next city of Tangier (in Africa). After a year there, he will head out into the desert, and his next stop will be the Oasis of Al-Fayoum. After spending some time there, he and the alchemist will proceed into the desert where he is captured and held in a military camp. After his escape, he stops at a monastery before heading on to the pyramids (and then back to Andalusia).

You will need note cards to annotate the events that take place in each location. You should have 15-20 note cards in all. Some places will require more notes than others. [see below]

The church - one note card
Tarifa - two note cards
Tangier - at least three note cards
The Oasis of Al-Fayoum - at least four note cards
The Military Camp - two note cards
The Monastery - one note card
The Pyramids - one to two note cards
Andalusia - one to two note cards (to sum up the ending)
